Secret Recipe: Rye's The Bottle Rocket

7x7 asks the city's chefs for the recipes to their most loved cocktails, bar snacks, starters, mains, and desserts. If there's a dish you can't stop thinking about and want to make at home, email schuyler@7x7.com. Your wish may end up on the blog, along with the actual recipe from the chef.

Bar manager Jen Ackril is one of those incredibly talented 'tenders who flies under the radar, but it's about time she gets some well-deserved props. While most of the concoctions she creates in cocktail heaven at Rye are instantly beloved, we're changing things up a bit to give you this festive, icy creation she whipped up just in time to celebrate our nation's birth—and perhaps liven up a BBQ or two. Happy Fourth!
